One of the best games I've ever played though I've just finished playing the directors cut and sadly it was pretty disappointing. It seems like they edited and cut away all the violence to the point where there's no blood and you can't actually get killed now.

@CynicalVision Yeah I'm playing the DC at the moment, and it does feel as if some of the charm has been taken away. I'm sure even some of the dialogue has changed slightly.

[badboybrattli]

what psx demo was this included in?

[KJGould]

@badboybrattli It was like the very first one that came with s PSX, I think. The one that had the T-Rex simulation you could control (the head and face). I can't remember what else was on it. Maybe a Destruction Derby demo, a Loaded demo, Jumping Jack Flash demo and a wipeout demo. This is just off the top of my head.

As I picked myself up all I could hear was the ceaseless drone of traffic , life went on around me but the explosion would change my life forever - George Stobart

@irishsimon99 I think that bit of dialogue is missing from the director's cut version.

[KirkusMan31]

i got stuck on this fucking game at the GOAT part cunts

[scotch1982]

@KJGould - You're right. I know some trimming might have been required due to the DS size limitations but it doesn't really seem like the same game - but Revolution might just say "It's NOT the same game and that's the point - It's a directors cut - so shut the heck up". We can always just go play our PC or PSX versions I suppose. Personally, I wish Nico hadn't become the lead character. I still prefer the original intro with the crow animation,arial view of Paris, music and Stobbart's dialogue!

@ryuyelo Vincent price voice amazing

[GaxAngel]

@KJGould I remember the T-Rex on that demo. I'm sure it had a mantaray you could control underwater too. So much nostalgia. I'm sure it also had a game called descent where you're in a little spaceship in a doom like environment.

The game is great, the voices are great, the story ius great, the art is great, the dialoug is great, the trailer is great...this game is the GREATEST EVER!

[CynicalVision]

@KJGould

Yeah! Sometimes it's fine but sometimes it didn't make any sense. Like just after the cafe explosion, George says something completely different and it's really unnatural the way he says it.

It also seems like some of the random videos have been taken out as well. :(
